DILLON FRANCIS SHARES NEW SINGLE AND MUSIC VIDEO “BABABA (VETE PA’YA)” (FEAT. YOUNG ASH)

TRACK IS THE THIRD SINGLE FROM HIS FORTHCOMING SPANISH LANGUAGE STUDIO ALBUM, DUE LATER THIS YEAR

LOS ANGELES – MAY 09, 2018 – Platinum-selling artist, DJ, and producer Dillon Francis has released “BaBaBa (Vete Pa’Ya)” (feat. Young Ash), the third single off his forthcoming Spanish language studio album, due out later this year via his own IDGAFOS record label. Recorded in New York City with Bronx-based vocalist Young Ash, the track is available to stream and download now HERE. Francis today also shared an accompanying music video for the track directed by Joel Strong (aka @mydaywithleo). Watch the music video HERE.

“For my album I really wanted to make a song reminiscent of ‘Que Que’, but an elevated version of it that was fun yet tough sounding. Young Ash’s flow on this is exactly that,” shared Francis. “It’s truly one of my favorite tracks from the project. Her voice is so strong and striking which makes for such an incredible gritty moombahton song”

Francis’ forthcoming album was executive produced by Toy Selectah and recorded in New York City, Miami, Dominican Republic, and Mexico City. Harkening back to his 2011 breakout Westside! EP, the album sees him revisit his early Latin influences and moombahton roots. “BaBaBa (Vete Pa’Ya)” (feat. Young Ash) follows the January release of “Ven” (feat. Arcángel & Quimico Ultra Mega) and February release of “We The Funk” (feat. Fuego).

IDGAFOS originated from Francis’ 2011 song of the same name, which at the time, reflected the culmination of his signature musical productions. The term has since evolved into a rallying cry for all things Dillon Francis — his clothing line, epic live show, and now an outlet with which to release his new music. In his own words, IDGAFOS is “to be spirited and happy… to never give a fuck or shit about anything but remaining positive.”

Francis recently collaborated with GRAMMY Award winning Puerto Rican rapper Residente on the track “Sexo” and starred in the song’s vibrant music video, which has amassed over 48 million views in less than a month. Watch it HERE.

Francis can currently be seen as a contestant on Comedy Central’s Reggie Watts-hosted “craziest game show ever” Taskmaster. Watch a trailer for the show HERE. Last month, it was also revealed that Comedy Central is developing Living The Dream, a new series from Francis and comedian/author Aaron Karo. In addition to serving as writer, actor, and executive producer for the show, Francis will also contribute original music.

Later this year, Francis will perform at numerous international music festivals and resume his residency at the Wynn Las Vegas for the third consecutive year. A complete list of upcoming live dates and ticket information can be found HERE.

Francis consistently engages a social media following of 1.9 million on Instagram, 1.5 million on Facebook, and 1 million on Twitter with a string of hilarious content. He remains a festival favorite, igniting the stages including Coachella, Electric Daisy Carnival, Ultra, TomorrowWorld, Electric Zoo. Moreover, his music has lit up Furious 7, Entourage, Neighbors, Zoolander 2, and more. For tour dates, love letters and more information visit www.dillonfrancis.com.

“The New York pop duo Loote prove their pop expertise on the infectious “Your Side of the Bed.” – NYLON

“They take it to the next level with “Your Side Of The Bed” — a feisty fuck-you to an ex that is as catchy as it is relatable.” – Idolator

“We are OBSESSED!” – Sweety High

“Your Side Of the Bed” amassed over 1 million streams in just 4 days and follows up Loote’s previously released singles “Out Of My Head” and “High Without Your Love” which together have amassed over 100 million global streams to date. Today, the breakout pop duo releases the “Your Side of the Bed” Flyboy remix and announces tour dates with K-Pop sensation Eric Nam.

The latest in a list of heavyweight team-ups sees dance music duo Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike pair up alongside one of trap’s highest profiled rap figures Gucci Mane for a record of seismic proportions in ‘All I Need’. Fresh, cutting and jacked with an abundance of swagger, ‘All I Need’ resonates with all the force fans have come to expect from these pioneering musical brothers.

With ‘All I Need’, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike continue in the broadening of the spectrum of their work. From the psytrance rework of ‘The House Of House’, alongside Vini Vici and Cherrymoon Trax, to their anthemic moombahton collaboration ‘Hey Baby’ with Diplo, the Belgian duo are increasingly delivering heavy hitting cuts from the studio. No strangers to scaling chart success having secured numerous #1 releases worldwide, including the Ne-Yo collaboration ‘Higher Place’, which peaked at #1 in Billboard’s Dance Chart and spent 10 weeks atop the chart in their native Belgium, whilst their recent hit single ‘Complicated’ with David Guetta ft Kiiara has to date amassed over 87 million Spotify streams and counting.

Since the release of Trap House in 2005, the Alabama born Gucci Mane has been on a trailblazer path, pioneering the rap/trap scene alongside rappers such as T.I and Young Jeezy. Consistently at the top of his game he has so far released 12 studio albums and worked with some of the biggest names in the game including Drake, Lil Wayne, Chris Brown and Mariah Carey. His 2016 collaboration with Rae Srummard ‘Black Beatles’ earned him his first #1 single in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and struck a chord with millions of fans worldwide. More recently it was announced that Gucci Mane’s life is set to be the subject of a big screen biopic.

On ‘All I Need’, two musical worlds collide to create a sum bigger than its parts in the form of a summer anthem that has heavy rotation and festival favourite written all over it. A catchy female topline gravitates the track alongside tropical bass-led textures, whilst reverb laden elements pad out the electronic-focused synths expertly programmed by Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. Gucci Mane’s verse signals the introduction of trademark trap-tinged hats, snares and percussions, ensuring fans of all persuasions are accounted for.

‘All I Need’ delivers some of the best of both the brothers’ and Gucci Mane’s arsenals, culminating in a track that is set to persistently permeate throughout radio speakers and festival fields and car stereos this summer. Grab ‘All I Need’ on May 4th when its released via Epic Amsterdam | Sony Music and Smash The House.

Princess Nokia–New York rapper Destiny Frasqueri–released her highly anticipated new mixtape A Girl Cried Red today via Rough Trade Records. The self-described “emo mixtape” can be heard here, and follows her critically acclaimed 2017 rap opus 1992 Deluxe. The video for first single “Your Eyes Are Bleeding” was directed by Milah Libin and Frasqueri, and features footage from the last two years of touring behind 1992 Deluxe.

The shape-shifting emcee has been releasing music via YouTube and Soundcloud since she was in high school and catapulted herself to the next level with 1992 Deluxe-selling out venues across the globe and steadily gaining tens of millions of streams. A Girl Cried Red showcases another fully formed side of Destiny that still taps into the uncompromising feminist ideology of Princess Nokia, and will undoubtedly cement her place in the alternative underground as well as the hip-hop world.

The mixtape draws on influences as varied as the introverted acoustic sounds of Elliott Smith to the bombastic pop-punk energy of Paramore. Read more about the mixtape’s inspiration via Dazed and hear more about her influences and her ode to all things emo/pop/punk on her bi-weekly Beats 1Radio show, Voices In My Head: http://apple.co/princessaod.
